After teasing the release earlier this week, Givenchy has dropped its surprise collaboration collection with Disney. “Disney has always held a special place in my heart, as it has for so many across generations, countries and cultures,” creative director Matthew Williams spoke of the partnership. “As a boy from California and a father in Paris, Disney has always been a source of meaningful moments throughout my life. It’s a true honor to bring out two iconic brands together for this project.”(Hypebae). The partnership is a “limited-edition capsule collection of luxury ready-to-wear” expected to feature co-branding graphics on the apparel.
The collection contains hoodies and tees marked with the Disney silhouettes and spotlights some of Disney’s most iconic characters, including Bambi, Perdita and Pongo from 101 Dalmations, and Elsa and Olaf from Frozen. The collection, named “The Wonder Gallery” is described as an “imaginary realm tinged with nostalgia” (Givenchy). In collaboration with Walt Disney Animation Studios the collection contains pieces priced from $520-$600 and are all exclusively on the Givenchy site.
